New Releases by Christina Lauren

Nachts erwachen alle Monster. Und sie haben es auf dein Herz abgesehen. Der Vampirjäger und erbitterte Jahrhunderterzfeind von Vampirin Ethel hat alles vergessen – sogar, dass er sie töten will. Währenddessen trifft Brigan, ein Unsterblicher, auf Cat, die erste Frau in 900 Jahren, die seiner magischen Anziehungskraft widerstehen kann. Journalistin Petra hingegen glaubt nicht an Magie – bis sie Dax trifft, dessen seltsame, fast lebendig wirkende Tattoos mehr erzählen als nur die Geschichte einer verfluchten Blutlinie. Dana, die Gefangene eines außerirdischen Wissenschaftlers, und der genetisch veränderte Vampir Vlad müssen indes Hals über Kopf von einer verlassenen Raumstation fliehen und kommen sich dabei näher. In einer anderen Dimension ist Schlafparalyse-Dämonin Gemma zu fasziniert von ihrem Opfer, um zuzuschlagen – im Gegenteil, sie findet Caleb hinreißend. Und als Lucy, die gerade sitzengelassen wurde, eine Münze in einen Brunnen wirft, buhlen plötzlich mehrere übernatürlich schöne Männer um ihr Herz. Doch jedes Happy End hat seinen Preis ... Heiß, düster, paranormal und herrlich komisch – der perfekte Read für die Gruselzeit von den Bestsellerautorinnen der Romance

The instant New York Times bestselling authors of The Paradise Problem and The Unhoneymooners return with an unforgettable new romance. One tragic accident. One troubled marriage erased from memory. One extraordinary do-over. Three years ago, Emery Finch did something completely out of character: she got married. To Luca - the impossibly charming landscaper she met on one blistering night in Vegas who made her laugh, made her dance, made her feel. But now, Emery is consumed by her top-secret job, missing dinners, forgetting anniversaries, and promising herself Luca will understand once her cutting-edge research comes to light. Until the unthinkable happens: a tragic accident takes Luca from her. Desperate not to lose him, Emery breaks every rule to bring him back. And Luca would probably thank her for it, if only he could remember her. Their first kiss, their Sunny Sundays at the beach, the life they built together . . . all of it is gone. It may be a miracle of science, but for Emery it''s her one shot at a second chance. And this time, she won''t waste it - because true love is always worth reviving.

Nach dem TikTok-Hit »The Unhoneymooners« ist das SPIEGEL-Bestseller-Erfolgsduo Christina Lauren endlich mit einer neuen, sommerlich prickelnden RomCom zurück! Anna hatte nicht damit gerechnet, West jemals wiederzusehen. Die chaotische, selbstbewusste Künstlerin und der zurückhaltende (gut aussehende) junge Standford-Professor haben sich seit dem College-Abschluss nicht mehr gesehen. Aber jetzt braucht er Annas Hilfe: Um an sein beachtliches Erbe zu kommen, muss er seiner verhassten Familie vorspielen, dass Anna und er glücklich verheiratet sind – auf der Hochzeit seiner Schwester. Wenn alles klappt, bekommt Anna auch einen Teil des Erbes. Da Anna ihm helfen möchte und das Geld momentan mehr als nötig hat, lässt sie sich darauf ein. Doch dann entwickelt sich ihre rein platonische Freundschaft während der luxuriösen Traumhochzeit auf einer paradiesischen Insel mit nur einem Doppelbett im gemeinsamen Hotelzimmer schnell in eine emotional komplizierte Richtung, vor allem, als Wests Familie langsam Verdacht schöpft, dass hier etwas nicht stimmt, und die beiden auf die ein oder andere Probe stellt ... » The Paradise Problem zeigt Christina Lauren in absoluter Höchstform – und setzt damit neue Maßstäbe für das gesamte Romance-Genre!

Ein weiteres Meisterwerk von den unangefochtenen Königinnen der Romance.« – Ali Hazelwood, New-York-Times-Bestsellerautorin

Christina Lauren, the instant New York Times bestselling and “reigning romance queens” (PopSugar) of modern classics such as The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words, returns with a swoonworthy novel following the buttoned-up heir of a grocery chain and his free-spirited artist ex as they fake their relationship in order to receive a massive inheritance. Anna Green thought she was marrying Liam “West” Weston for access to subsidized family housing while at UCLA. She also thought she’d signed divorce papers when the graduation caps were tossed, and they both went on their merry ways. Three years later, Anna is a starving artist living paycheck to paycheck while West is a Stanford professor. He may be one of four heirs to the Weston Foods conglomerate, but he has little interest in working for the heartless corporation his family built from the ground up. He is interested, however, in his one-hundred-million-dollar inheritance. There’s just one catch. Due to an antiquated clause in his grandfather’s will, Liam won’t see a penny until he’s been happily married for five years. Just when Liam thinks he’s in the home stretch, pressure mounts from his family to see this mysterious spouse, and he has no choice but to turn to the one person he’s afraid to introduce to his one-percenter parents—his unpolished, not-so-ex-wife. But in the presence of his family, Liam’s fears quickly shift from whether the feisty, foul-mouthed, paint-splattered Anna can play the part to whether the toxic world of wealth will corrupt someone as pure of heart as his surprisingly grounded and loyal wife. Liam will have to ask himself if the price tag on his flimsy cover story is worth losing true love that sprouted from a lie.

Felicity "Fizzy" Chen is lost. Sure, she''s got an incredible career as a beloved romance novelist with a slew of bestsellers under her belt, but when she''s asked to give a commencement address, it hits her: she hasn''t been practicing what she''s preached. Fizzy hasn''t ever really been in love. Lust? Definitely. But that swoon-worthy, can''t-stop-thinking-about-him, all-encompassing feeling? Nope. Nothing. What happens when the optimism she''s spent her career encouraging in readers starts to feel like a lie?

When he says yes, and production on The True Love Experiment begins, Connor wonders if that perfect match will ever be in the cue cards for him, too.

The “reigning romance queens” (PopSugar) and New York Times bestselling authors of Love and Other Words and The Unhoneymooners present a charming and laugh-out-loud funny novel filled with adventure, treasure, and, of course, love. Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession…or much money in the bank. But Lily is resourceful, and now uses Duke’s coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn’t leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails. Frankly, Lily would like to take him out into the wilderness and leave him there. Leo Grady knew mirages were a thing in the desert, but they’d barely left civilization when the silhouette of his greatest regret comes into focus in the flickering light of the campfire. Ready to leave the past behind him, Leo wants nothing more than to reconnect with his first and only love. Unfortunately, Lily Wilder is all business, drawing a clear line in the sand: it’s never going to happen. But when the trip goes horribly and hilariously wrong, the group wonders if maybe the legend of the hidden treasure wasn’t a gimmick after all. There’s a chance to right the wrongs—of Duke’s past and their own—but only if Leo and Lily can confront their history and work together. Alone under the stars in the isolated and dangerous mazes of the Canyonlands, Leo and Lily must decide whether they’ll risk their lives and hearts on the treasure hunt of a lifetime. This page-turning adventure full of second chances, complicated relationships, and the breathtaking beauty of the American Southwest will take you on one wild ride.

Romanul Autoboyografie a fost nominalizat la prestigioase premii literare, printre care Goodreads Choice Best Young Adult Fiction 2017, Audible Best of the Year, ALA Rainbow List, 30th Annual Lambda Literary Award Doi băieți se îndrăgostesc în timpul cursului de scriere creativă din liceu. Unul provine dintr-o familie cu vederi largi, celălalt, dintr-o comunitate religioasă conservatoare! Cu trei ani în urmă, familia lui Tanner Scott s-a mutat din California în Utah, o mișcare care l-a determinat pe adolescentul dezorientat să își ascundă adevărata orientare sexuală. Ajuns în ultimul semestru de liceu, băiatul plănuiește treacă prin ultimele cursuri fără cine știe ce bătăi de cap, iar apoi să facă marele salt spre libertate, părăsind orășelul în care se simte prins ca-ntr-o capcană. Atunci când Autumn, cea mai bună prietenă a lui, îl provoacă să se înscrie la Seminar – cursul la care elevii trebuie să scrie o carte în doar patru luni –, Tanner nu poate rezista tentației. Să scrii o carte în patru luni pare simplu, crede el, însă observă cu năduf că patru luni înseamnă, totuși, o eternitate. De cât timp însă are nevoie Tanner să se îndrăgostească? Din câte se pare, o secundă îi e mai mult decât suficient pentru a-l remarca pe Sebastian Brother, un fost elev al școlii care a reușit să vândă unei mari edituri romanul scris în timpul cursului și care acum este mentor pentru liceeni interesați de literatură. Singura problemă în calea fericirii lui Tanner ar fi că Sebastian este mormon și urmează să plece într-o misiune de evanghelizare timp de doi ani. „Un roman emoționant și plin de speranță!ˮ Publishers Weekly „Lauren abordează teme precum religia, identitatea, sexualitatea, țesând cu măiestrie în pânza romanului proiectul literar al lui Tanner, pasiunea lui fulgerătoare pentru Sebastian, dar și frământările interioare ale personajelor atunci când sentimentele tânărului mormon intră în conflict cu așteptările pe care biserica le are de la el.ˮPublishers Weekly „Dulce și devastator ca prima dragoste, Autoboyografie este o capodoperă. Explorarea identității, a credinței și ce înseamnă să îți deschizi cu adevărat sufletul sunt tratate cu delicatețe și umor, astfel încât vei simți nevoia să dai pagină după pagină. Ador cartea asta!ˮ Kiersten White, autoarea seriei Saga cuceritorului „Christina Lauren reușește să ilustreze cu talent speranța pe care o aduce cu sine iubirea, dar și incertitudinile care apar atunci când te îndrăgostești în cadrul unei comunități care nu a fost învățată să accepte o poveste altfel.ˮ Teen Vogue „Lauren izbândește în a aborda un subiect delicat cu simplitate și compasiuneˮ Booklist „Această poveste complexă și plină de sensibilitate este nu doar despre găsirea iubirii, ci și despre puterea de a-ți găsi identitatea și a te accepta așa cum ești. Amuzantă și credibilă. Cititorii se vor bucura să asiste la călătoria lui Tanner pentru a-și găsi vocea.” Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books ISBN ebook: 9786069740606

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Writing duo and reigning romance queens Christina Lauren are back with...their most ambitious book to date.” —PopSugar Chosen as a best pick by Bustle, Marie Claire, Entertainment Weekly, E! Online, PopSugar, BuzzFeed, Goodreads, Country Living, The Pioneer Woman, Woman’s World, Bookish, Bookreporter, Frolic, and more! The New York Times bestselling authors of The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words return with a witty and effervescent novel about what happens when two people with everything on the line are thrown together by science—or is it fate? Perfect for fans of Abby Jimenez. Single mom Jess Davis is a data and statistics wizard, but no amount of number crunching can convince her to step back into the dating world. After all, her father was never around, her hard-partying mother disappeared when she was six, and her ex decided he wasn’t “father material” before her daughter was even born. Jess holds her loved ones close but working constantly to stay afloat is hard...and lonely. But then Jess hears about GeneticAlly, a buzzy new DNA-based matchmaking company that’s predicted to change dating forever. Finding a soulmate through DNA? The reliability of numbers: This Jess understands. At least she thought she did, until her test shows an unheard-of 98 percent compatibility with another subject in the database: GeneticAlly’s founder, Dr. River Peña. This is one number she can’t wrap her head around, because she already knows Dr. Peña. The stuck-up, stubborn man is without a doubt not her soulmate. But GeneticAlly has a proposition: Get ‘to know him and we’ll pay you. Jess—who is barely making ends meet—is in no position to turn it down, despite her skepticism about the project and her dislike for River. As the pair are dragged from one event to the next as the “Diamond” pairing that could launch GeneticAlly’s valuation sky-high, Jess begins to realize that there might be more to the scientist—and the science behind a soulmate—than she thought. “Laugh-out-loud, sweet, charming, and humorous” (Library Journal, starred review), The Soulmate Equation proves that the delicate balance between fate and choice can never be calculated.

From the New York Times bestselling authors behind the “joyful, warm, touching” (Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author) The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words comes a delightfully charming love story about what happens when two assistants tasked with keeping a rocky relationship from explosion start to feel sparks of their own. Carey Duncan has worked for home remodeling and design gurus Melissa and Rusty Tripp for nearly a decade. A country girl at heart, Carey started in their first store at sixteen, and—more than anyone would suspect—has helped them build an empire. With a new show and a book about to launch, the Tripps are on the verge of superstardom. There’s only one problem: America’s favorite couple can’t stand each other. James McCann, MIT graduate and engineering genius, was originally hired as a structural engineer, but the job isn’t all he thought it’d be. The last straw? Both he and Carey must go on book tour with the Tripps and keep the wheels from falling off the proverbial bus. Unfortunately, neither of them is in any position to quit. Carey needs health insurance, and James has been promised the role of a lifetime if he can just keep the couple on track for a few more weeks. While road-tripping with the Tripps up the West Coast, Carey and James vow to work together to keep their bosses’ secrets hidden, and their own jobs secure. But if they stop playing along—and start playing for keeps—they may have the chance to build something beautiful together… From the “hilariously zany and heartfelt” (Booklist) Christina Lauren comes a romantic comedy that proves if it’s broke, you might as well fix it.

From the New York Times bestselling authors of The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words comes a modern love story about what happens when your first love reenters your life when you least expect it… Sam Brandis was Tate Jones’s first: Her first love. Her first everything. Including her first heartbreak. During a whirlwind two-week vacation abroad, Sam and Tate fell for each other in only the way that first loves do: sharing all of their hopes, dreams, and deepest secrets along the way. Sam was the first, and only, person that Tate—the long-lost daughter of one of the world’s biggest film stars—ever revealed her identity to. So when it became clear her trust was misplaced, her world shattered for good. Fourteen years later, Tate, now an up-and-coming actress, only thinks about her first love every once in a blue moon. When she steps onto the set of her first big break, he’s the last person she expects to see. Yet here Sam is, the same charming, confident man she knew, but even more alluring than she remembered. Forced to confront the man who betrayed her, Tate must ask herself if it’s possible to do the wrong thing for the right reason… and whether “once in a lifetime” can come around twice. With Christina Lauren’s signature “beautifully written and remarkably compelling” (Sarah J. Maas, New York Times bestselling author) prose and perfect for fans of Emily Giffin and Jennifer Weiner, Twice in a Blue Moon is an unforgettable and moving novel of young love and second chances.
